More quotes by Pythagoras
A fool is known by his speech and a wise man by silence.
Pythagoras
If men with fleshly mortals must be fed, and chew with bleeding teeth the breathing bread what else is this but to devour our guests, and barbarously renew Cyclopean feasts? While Earth not only can your needs supply, but, lavish of her store, provides for luxury a guiltless feast administers with ease, and without blood is prodigal to please.
Pythagoras
Salt is born of the purest parents: the sun and the sea.
Pythagoras
Do not go to bed until you have gone over the day three times in your mind. What wrong did I do? What good did I accomplish? What did I forget to do?
Pythagoras

Pythagoras
When the wise man opens his mouth, the beauties of his soul present themselves to the view, like the statues in a temple.
Pythagoras
A stranger, if just, is not only to be preferred before a countryman, but a kinsman.
Pythagoras
Better be mute, than dispute with the Ignorant.
Pythagoras
Thou shalt likewise know that according to Law, the nature of this universe is in all things a like.
Pythagoras
Truth is to be sought with a mind purified from the passions of the body. Having overcome evil things, thou shalt experience the union of the union mortal divinity with the mortal man.
Pythagoras
Practice justice in word and deed, and do not get in the habit of acting thoughtlessly about anything.
Pythagoras
